    I have a 11/16" square point W&B "Special" that has Special etched on the tang & special also on the plastic scales. Dropped this razor & broke the back scale.

    Even Dble Duck has a 'special' , but after seeing the time line of production, if it was just a buzz word at that time.

    "Special" was a very common term used with everything. It was very popular with watches too and meant nothing in most cases. it was even used with certain brands of Hot Dogs but that's another story for another time.

    I have no clue of Wade and Butcher because I'm an admitted neophyte. However, one can find incredible deals on Solingen straights here: Dvor.com | Daily Deals and Offers on the Gear You Want You'll have to join the site. I believe it's free, at least it was when I joined.

    BTW, if you're looking for a quality knife, check dvor.
